THE TATTLER »:MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!lltllllllllllllllllllllllMlllllllllllllllllllllllltllll!llllllllllllllllllllll||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||H Senior Report OUR years have sped by, seemingly on wings of Mercury, since as backward, self-conscious Freshmen we crossed the threshold of true knowledge with note-book and pencils clasped nervously in our awkward hands. But time hath wrought its changes and we feel that with the training and knowledge received from our capable faculty for the past four years we are better equipped to begin our start in life and endure the “kicks” and hard knocks that come with it, with a smiling coun- tenance. The class of ’21 leaves behind it an enviable record. With such talented leaders as Norma Soule, James Sharp, Tyler Buchenau and Hazel Van Tassel, this class has been prominent and ably represented in all Student Body activi- ties during our high school career. In the athletic field our class has shone forth brilliantly through the skill of such star players as Glen Perham, President of the boys’ athletic association and Captain of Basket Ball team, Hugh Baum- burger, Sub., Lois Birch, President of Girls’ Athletic association, and Captain of Basket Ball team, Millie Birch, guard, Eunice Young, running center, and Hazel Kooch, sub. The Senior Army ball team has been a source of fear to the other classes. So far we have only suffered one defeat, then by the Sophomore class. The disappointment did not bring such sorrow as it would have our rivals, the Juniors, beaten us. Talking about rivalry — one never witnessed so much jeal- ousy, hatred, sarcasm, and contradiction as that amiable team of Juniors dis- played during that memorable army ball game on April 20. Why Freshmen, they even snubbed us because we couldn ' t invent boys and “kicked” because the male members of the faculty loyally supported our team. But you will agree with us that there was no occasion for it when we liberally offered them the female members. Eunice beware ! The greatest secret of the St. Anthony High School was revealed that night — Francis Armstrong, that boyish, loving. Junior, with the “come-thither” in his eye and the “love me” smile — O, Eunice, it breaks my sympathetic heart to say it, but he has a temper ! The elocutionary talent of the class was represented in this year’s Decla- matory contest by Tyler Buchenau and James Sharp in Oratory, Hazel Van Tassel and Lucile Hudson in Dramatics and Ida Osguthorpe in Humorous. The winners in the local contest were Hazel Van Tassel and Ida Osguthorpe; both came second in the district contest. This year Nora Soule, James Sharp, Lavern Hansen, Tyler Buchenau and Hazel Van Tassel maintained the Seniors’ reputation along debating lines. A very entertaining program was given Christmas by the Senior class. Of course our rivals, the Juniors, had previously given one but the Seniors always manage to score one ahead. The nurse certainly started something when she put the girls wise to the lacest styles. One of our dignified Seniors, not mentioning any names, marched in the assembly the next morning with her “ears parked outside.” A riot almost ensued. Page Twenty-eight

THE TATTLER iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiimii: The Senior Teachers Training class gave an interesting, educational pro- gram. When it was over the under classmen shyly asked us what we were talking about. “Where ignorance is bliss.” This class has not been without the little disagreements that are certain to come in discussing such momentous questions as rings or pins, class motto, caps and gowns, and class play. Pins were chosen by the class. Perhaps the influence of the salesman was manifested in our choice. That ancient question caps and gowns has caused much consternation in our peace-loving class. By a unanimous vote we decided to abondon them. Every member in the class signed a petition to that effect and it was presented to our considerate school board who actually ignored our pleadings. So in spite of our ceaseless efforts ' to cast them off we are to be forced to don our flowing robes and with a “solemncholy” air march down the aisle to receive our diplomas, to the tune of a funeral march. O! if they would only play “Yankee Dooddle” to re- lieve the tension. On the evening of April 8th the Senior class was royally entertained by the Juniors at their Annual Prom. The music, the decorations, refreshments and the program all combined to make the affair a delightful one, especially for the Seniors. One week later the Seniors returned the compliment by entertaining the Juniors at the Annual Senior Ball. The decorations were very original and the balloons were a surprise to all. The evening was spent in the usual manner, doing the “light fantastic, and having a good time generally. “Assisted by Sadie,” has been selected as the class play and promises to be one of the best plays so far presented by high school students. The Honors of our class go to Hazel Van Tassel, Valedictorian, a respected and well liked member of our class for the four years, who has a record with neither a tardy nor absent mark ; Tyler Buchenau, Salutatorian, has been active in oratory for three years and has a promising future. Our motto “Be not simply good; be good for something” will be our slogan when we bid adieu to our High School days and embark on the uncertain Ship of Life.
